the part of my brain that likes learning new programming languages is perpetually at war with the fact that C# is basically the perfect language for making the kind of games I make

i wouldn't call it impostor syndrome exactly but i do feel like the seed idea of cobalt core was a shiny diamond we found after 10000 hours in the game ideation mines, and i yearn to find another

It is objectively good for people to be able to mod your game easily. I was concerned if we were gonna be moddable but the community cracked the game open like a big juicy coconut before we even launched
This is why for any desktop release I do in the future I want to continue to use the normal C# binaries - even though C# now supports compiling to native binaries (great for Consoles) I want it to be easy to decompile the game.
